Chapter 116: Door-to-door proposal

"Dididi, Didi-Di——!" Suddenly, the horn of a sedan sounded downstairs. [Latest chapter reading.]

Tian Tian hurriedly ran to the balcony and leaned over to take a look, and sure enough, Ouyang Kunpeng arrived.

So, she quickly turned around and picked up her luggage, carried her backpack, and walked out the door.

Then, Tian Tian's rhythmic footsteps came from the silent staircase.

"Brother Kunpeng. ”

Tian Tian quickly put the luggage in the trunk, opened the co-pilot's door and greeted.

As soon as she sat down, she twisted her head to the back seat, as if searching for something.

"Hey, what about my uncle and aunt? aren't they going?"

Ouyang Kunpeng glanced at Tian Tian, who was full of confusion and surprise, and replied, "They take another car." ”

"Why do you want to drive two cars, can't you sit down?"

"It's going to be a little more convenient. The main worry is that having them will be very restrained. ”

"Huh, thank you!"

Meet Ouyang Kunpeng's parents at a gas station.

Tian Tian got out of the car and politely greeted the two elders.

I saw that his father was wearing a white shirt, and his mother was wearing a purple hip-wrapping dress.

After discussion, Ouyang Kunpeng's car led the way, followed by his father's car.

"Brother Kunpeng, how old is your dad this year?"

As soon as the car door closed, Tian Tian couldn't wait to ask.

"Sixty-five. ”

"Sixty-five? Oh my God, it's not like that. He looks so young! Also, no matter how I look at it, I don't think your mother is an old lady in her sixties, she looks less than fifty. ”

"She's forty-eight this year. ”

"Well, he looks so young and graceful. ”

"Hey, strange, why are your parents so different in age?"

"Because, my mom is my dad's second wife. Eh, hello gossip!"

"Can't I dig deeper?"

"Okay. ”

"So, what about your father's first wife? No, no, don't answer me first, let me think about it, according to the plot routine in the TV series, it is generally like this: your father must have been poor when he was young, and then, there was a girl who was silently supporting him, encouraging him, and comforting him, so he was moved by the girl's kindness and true feelings, and got married. Then, they had children.

"However, one day, the boss's daughter suddenly liked your father and pestered him, helplessly, he only abandoned his wife and children with a clear conscience, and married the wayward rich daughter, that person is your mother. Isn't that so?"

Ouyang Kunpeng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"I say, are you a family or a screenwriter?

"Did you say?"

"No, my dad and his previous wife used to be self-made, and it's true that they shared weal and woe, but it wasn't that my dad abandoned her, but that she fell ill and died. What kind of mess?"

"Really?"

Tian Tian will be skeptical.

"It's true. Lie to you as a puppy!"

"So, didn't my uncle and his ex-wife have children?"

"Yes, my two older brothers are. ”

"From this point of view, you and your sister are born to your mother!

Soon, the car was driving onto the national highway, which was lined with crops, farmland or orchards.

Tian Tian raised his wrist and saw that it was already eight o'clock.

"Brother Kunpeng, I want to give my dad a call. ”

"You're typing, the phone is in the bag in the back seat. ”

Tian Tian told his father that they were already on the way, and if nothing else, they might arrive around three o'clock in the afternoon, and said that they would call when they were about to arrive.

Along the way, it went well.

When they arrived in the town of Tian Tian's hometown, it was already half past two in the afternoon.

After swaying left and right on the country road, I finally found the hotel.

From afar, Tian Tian saw a man and a woman in their forties at the door of the hotel looking forward with bated breath, and when they looked at it, they were his parents. As the distance shortened, Tian Tian saw it more realistically.

Seeing that her parents were dressed casually and shabby, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.

"Abba, Grandma!"

As soon as Tian Tian got out of the car, he ran over excitedly and pounced on them.

Seeing the bright smiles on her parents' faces like the afternoon sun, she couldn't say how relieved.

"Hello uncle and aunt!"

I don't know when, Ouyang Kunpeng also got out of the car.

Ouyang Kunpeng's parents, who followed closely, also parked the car, and then got out of the car.

I saw that Ouyang Kunpeng's father looked at it while walking over here, and said with a smile: "Are these Tian Tian's parents?"

"Yes. Welcome, welcome!"

Tian Tian's father stretched out his hand enthusiastically.

A waitress ushered them upstairs to a private room.

Ouyang Kunpeng's parents were led to the seat by Tian Tian's father.

"You must have had a hard time, right?"

"It's fine. ”

A few of them were chatting and chatting.

Tian Tian felt that Ouyang Kunpeng's mother was a little indifferent, her expression was stiff, and her smile was also fake. Especially when she first saw her parents when she got out of the car, she clearly captured the surprise and disdain in her eyes.

Perhaps, how did she, the chairman's wife, never think that today in the nineties of the twentieth century, Tian Tian's mother was still wearing blue plainclothes with side cardigan buttons. Although rural people have long heard of rustic clothing, they did not expect that cardigans have not yet become popular here.

Tian Tian's father was wearing a light gray jacket and a pair of liberation shoes.

However, Tian Tian found that his father went to get a haircut, most likely today, because he still had one or two broken hairs stuck to his ears.

The difference in clothing reveals the huge difference between urban and rural areas.

Seeing that people are dressed so fashionably, in comparison, she is so rustic, so Tian Tian's mother is a little uncomfortable.

"Since we are going back to Guangdong today, we will go straight to the point and say what needs to be said. How?"

Ouyang Kunpeng's father got straight to the point.

"Good. But why don't you stay at home for the night?"

Hearing that he was going to return immediately, the hospitable Tian Tian's father felt a little uncomfortable.

"I'm going to work tomorrow. In this way, brother, these two children want to be together, I don't know if you have any opinions, if not, we will officially propose to you today. ”

"Her mother and I don't have a problem with each other, and we don't want to interfere in her marriage. Now, after all, it's not the old society, and we parents have to follow the trend. ”

In fact, all parents in the world have only one wish, that is, to hope that their children are healthy, happy and safe. ”

"Yes, as long as he is happy, we are happy. Besides, it's not good for us to interfere arbitrarily, as the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet. Anyway, the family she chose herself, whether it was good or bad, that was her vision and her life. ”

"Yes, that's the case. Then, let's make a long story short, we won't pull down any of the etiquette that should be there. I don't know what customs and etiquette you have here? For example, how much is the bride price?"

"The bride price? Not necessarily, more or less. However, last year, it was generally one thousand Jiu Bai Jiu Jiu Yuan Jiu Mao Jiu, which means that they hope that their marriage will last a long time and grow old. Hehehe!"

After Ouyang Kunpeng's father said "oh", he opened the coffee-colored leather bag he was carrying, took out a bundle of neatly tied cyan hundred-yuan bills and put them on the table, and finally, he put a stack of change bills on top.

Then, he pushed the money in front of Tian Tian's father, and said with a smile: "Brother, this is 119,999 yuan and nine cents and nine cents, as a bride price." Please take an inventory. Although the money is not much, it shows a little heart. ”

When the banknotes like a mountain were presented in front of his eyes, Tian Tian's father was stunned. He never imagined that he would one day have so much money.

He is just an out-and-out farmer, at most he only chops firewood, digs bamboo shoots, fishes, catches loaches and collects some medicinal herbs to sell, which is used to obtain a meager economic income. Therefore, don't say that you will not be able to make so much money in a lifetime, even in ten lifetimes.

I saw that he gently stroked the banknotes with trembling hands, and was speechless for a long time.

In fact, even Tian Tian was dumbfounded. Because, before, she didn't hear Ouyang Kunpeng reveal that she would give so many dowries. Besides, it can be seen that this has been prepared for a long time.

"Brother, put it away, the waiter is about to serve the food. ”

Hearing Ouyang Kunpeng's reminder of his father, Tian Tian's father, who was in a dream, hurriedly took out a snakeskin bag filled with feed, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "I was going to buy bran to feed the pigs, but now, it can just come in handy." ”

"Then, when will the marriage of the two of them be done? How about this year's National Day or New Year's Day?"

"Brother, I'm sorry, this year, I'm afraid not. ”

"Uh, why?"

"Because, our custom here is that it is unlucky for a girl to marry when her age is singular. And Tian Tian is just twenty-one this year, which is an odd number. ”

"Oh!"

Ouyang Kunpeng's father smiled thoughtfully.

"What age is this, and you still believe in superstition?"

His mother gave a sneer of disdain.

"Eh, follow the locals. What's the matter with a few months later?"

"I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay, let's talk about it next year. ”

"Thank you for your understanding!"

After eating, Tian Tian wanted to go downstairs with his parents, and at the same time, he also called Ouyang Kunpeng.

In order not to attract thieves with those money, Tian Tian suggested that his father immediately put the money in the bank and save it, it happened that Ouyang Kunpeng had a car, which was convenient. So, Ouyang Kunpeng turned back upstairs and took down the snakeskin bag.

What a coincidence! Tian Tian's father touched it with his hand, and there was really a passbook in his jacket pocket, which was some time ago, after taking it to the bank to check the money received, it was not put in the drawer.

After coming back, Ouyang Kunpeng was going to drive Tian Tian's parents home, but the two of them were unwilling anyway, and insisted that "they can walk back".

Seeing that the time was not early, the four of them were also in a hurry, so they said goodbye to Tian Tian's parents one by one and began the journey back.

Back in the city, night fell, and neon flashed.

I heard that the road rage on that national highway was particularly rampant, and for the sake of safety, Ouyang Kunpeng's father proposed to rest in the city for one night and continue to rush early tomorrow morning.

When booking a room in the hotel, Ouyang Kunpeng booked two rooms, and Tian Tian hurriedly secretly added one at the front desk.

After half past nine, Tian Tian and Ouyang Kunpeng said "good night" and walked out the door.

"Where are you going?"

Ouyang Kunpeng was puzzled.

"Sleep. ”

Hearing this, he pulled Tian Tian with an arrow step, and said in a low voice with a smile: "Tian Tian, what do you mean?"

"I want to say, you miscalculated, I really don't know if your math was taught by your Chinese teacher. ”
